I love RFF. In fact I’ve enjoyed listening to it more than any other online source of music for a long time.

It’s a community internet radio station that plays music (and some spoken word) from artists on the Fediverse.
I love it, especially their ‘Comfy’ channel.
I think that the commission should remain at exactly the same percentage but that they should be required by law to do an amount of work that represents it. Like take home the 20k on Monday but then spend Tuesday to Sunday working full time in whichever brothel gets assigned to you by the buyer. Or participating in concurrent human medical experiments or somesuch.
That sounds like a massive pain in the backside.
Time to pay VAT motherfuckers.
I assumed it was global… What do you use in the US?
Watership Down
I had to learn to remember this within the dream and to forcibly wake myself up from it to stop this happening. Which I think is quite an accomplishment, if I may say so myself.
I suspect it goes back to wearing nappies/diapers as a baby. Babies naturally try to wait until they are unclothed to relieve themselves; they essentially have to learn how to go in a nappy, or else let it happen because they can’t hold it in any longer. Then they have unlearn this with potty training. It’s crazy really.
It’s all fucking tire kickers anyway.
I had an instance recently where it was faster and easier to literally make an item with my bare hands than to coordinate a purchase of one via marketplace.
It’s a strong tradition in France that when you get pissed off with a company you take its CEO hostage.
It seems to be really effective.
There is some good reading to be had that explains the specific roles that different groups of former Soviet elites were allowed to fill within the corrupt power vacuum that followed the collapse.
Can you recommend any good books? I haven’t studied Russia much but recently read Killer In The Kremlin and would like to read more.
Cavespider sounds hardcore.
Woah, shame on me for not getting my thesaurus out for you. I’ll be more careful next time…
There’s no need to be rude and swear at me. Be polite, offer a correction. If you’re against corporations (like I am) then maybe leave their culture of antagonism at the door and help keep the Fediverse pleasant, helpful and cooperative.
You’re not doing it wrong. It’s just a bit like that at the moment.
What Peertube needs is for other Fediverse platforms to build in a filter so only posts which contain video are displayed.
Peertube posts do federate but because there are way less videos produced than text and image posts (for obvious reasons) they are drowned out. Filtering by content type seems like the obvious solution. This is how Pixelfed works (but for still images), so it’s clearly possible.
My feeling is that we’re still in the first iteration of the Fediverse, where it’s mostly trying to replace the functionality of corporate platforms. Which I think has mostly been achieved now. Hopefully it will start leaning into its unique strengths now and become really innovative.
Of course there is also the issue of adoption and Peertube has had less publicity than Mastodon and Lemmy, so it’s understandable that there is less content. If you can, contact your favourite youtubers and ask them to start a Peertube channel. If enough of us do this it starts to become a thing :)
Russia?
I don’t play darts but it makes me genuinely sad to hear that.
I think AI has mostly been about luring investors into pumping up share prices rather than offering something of genuine value to consumers.
Some people are gonna lose a lot of other people’s money over it.
Er, what?
